Property description

A rare opportunity to purchase this period cottage in an undeniably stunning setting being in an elevated position in this favoured road a short distance from Shaftesbury town centre. The charming cottage offers unrivalled views across the Blackmore Vale, and is nestled in its established gardens.

The house provides deceptively spacious accommodation including three light and airy reception rooms, a well appointed kitchen, utility room and a conservatory on the ground floor. There are four well proportioned bedrooms on the second floor that are serviced by an en-suite shower room and a large family bathroom with glorious views. The cottage is bordered by its delightful garden on three sides. Stone paved paths connect thoughtfully positioned paved terraces, one of which benefits from uninterrupted stunning views over the Blackmore Vale, the other adjacent to the sitting room. Majority of the gardens are laid to lawn, interspersed with abundant colourful well stocked floral borders, herbaceous beds and specimen trees. Gates lead from either side of the property to the back garden with hedge boundaries surrounding the garden on all sides. There is ample car parking, a double garage and a useful workshop/store.

Situation
26 French Mill Lane is enviably situated in an elevated
position with uninterrupted far reaching views
over the Blackmore Vale and within ¾ mile of the
town centre. The hilltop town of Shaftesbury provides a range of everyday services and shops including public houses, cafes, restaurants, independent and high street shops, a doctor's surgery and a cottage hospital. The local schools are excellent and within easy reach; these include St Mary's School, Clayesmore, Port Regis, Sandroyd and many highly regarded local state schools. The communication links in the area are very good with the A303 just a few miles to the north providing road access to London & the West and a mainline railway station at either Gillingham (5 miles) or Tisbury (9.3 miles) serving London Waterloo (approximately two hours).
